Portland, Ore. — Researchers at Cornell University have created the world's smallest mechanical oscillator that is capable of being tuned electrically. The nanoelectromechanical system (NEMS), which ...

It may seem at times that there is a divide between the optical/photonic domain and the RF one, with the terahertz zone between them as a demarcation. If you need to make a transition between the ...

There are plenty of hobbies around with huge price tags, and ham radio can certainly be one of them. Experienced hams might have radios that cost thousands of dollars, with huge, steerable antennas on ...

Microcontrollers tend to consume other kinds of electronics. A project you might once have done with a 555 now probably has a cheap microcontroller in it. Music synthesizers? RC controllers? Most ...

Microchip Technology is introducing its EX‑423 Evacuated Miniature Crystal Oscillator (EMXO). For space‑ and power‑constrained designs, it features ultra‑low phase noise. The compact, low‑power timing ...

Sonet, SDH, ATM, and WAN applications are the main targets for the RFX300 series (rfXO) of high-performance RF crystal oscillators. The devices feature just 3-ps RMS jitter, 0.5-ps phase jitter, and ...
